Rishi Kapoor had always been an outspoken, honest, and 'care-a-damn' kind of a person. He has always voiced his opinion without flinching. Only recently, he had requested the Government to open liquor shops during lockdown for a reason. Often he has been called out for his opinions too but that didn't deter him.
